Senseless and expensive crimes are now under more watchful eyes.. Four city parks are getting more surveillance cameras to combat vandals... KITV's Catherine Cruz shows us where they're going up, all new tonight at 6. 29-33 49-52 109-113 On Kauau this week, vandals ripped out a section of newly installed astroturf. Last month, it was shattered toliet. This East Honolulu park was left in shambles recently with a damaged fence, drinking fountain and uprooted newly-planted trees. Now, the city is moving to install 19 surveilance cameras in four parks in Makakilo and Kapolei. And while some folks may be bothered by big brother watching---families we talked to say they are willing to give up some privacy, if it will help prevent damage to public property. - Magilla Sumida 19:11 - 19: 19 -"That's the one problem, you go to alot of the parks and you go to the bathroom and there's no toilet paper and its vandalized and its horrible, you know," Jaime Donato brings her siblings to Kamokila Community park all the time. She wasnt aware there were already some cameras installed in the area, but said she's okay with it. - Jaime Donato 14:20 -14: 24 - "It's is a bother, but for the right reasons for the community, for the kids," The city will add three more surveilence cameras here with plans to add an additional 12 in two other parks in Makakilo. The Makakilo community park already has four cameras. They were installed two years ago--thanks to $11,000 in seed money from Palehua Community Association. - cruz 4:51- 5:02 or next one - "City parks workers say even with the cameras in they are still having problems.Just recently someone vandalized this city truck, taking not only batteries but fuel," The 8 other extra eyes will add additional coverage to the park grounds and parking lot in an attempt to deter thieves from breaking in to cars that belong to staff and park users. Familes just want to enjoy the facilities that their tax dollars pay for like this covered play area for little ones. - Jaime 14:27 -14:30 -"They bring new tables new things and they keep it nice, so I am pretty much in favor of it" -- Magilla Sumida 20: 40 -20: 4 -"I come here with my grandson and tits always really nice, I really like this covering" Hard to believe, but it was actually a decade ago that the idea of security cameras in parks was first floated by the Honolulu police department as a way to deter vandalism. The pictures or video can sometimes help as evidence catching criminals in the act. In the case of Kauai--none of the county parks have cameras in place. If you have any information about the recent cases there you're asked to call crimestoppers. Back
